" Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."

— Philippians 4:6 —

Wed, Mar 12 – Sun, Apr 20

Join us for 40 days of prayer and fasting as we prepare our hearts for Easter.

The Bible teaches that there is power in united prayer and fasting. We invite YOU to join us on a 40-day journey leading up to Easter—a time to remove limitations on God, dream bigger, and seek a deeper experience of Him. Bring your boldest prayers for yourself, your loved ones, our nation, and the world, and trust God for GREATER things!

Ways to Participate

Pray

Designate a place & time to connect with God daily and pray:

• for those in your life who may feel far from God...to experience His love, salvation, restoration, and peace
• for those we are planning to invite to NBCC's Easter Celebration on Sun, Apr 20
• a breakthrough in your life—areas of personal need
• healing for physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs

Fast

Identify one thing to give up that will allow you to devote extra time to hearing from God: (Let cravings serve as a reminder to pray.)

• Certain foods (bread, sweets, solid foods, coffee, etc.).*
• A recreational practice (TV, a hobby, social media, video games, etc.).

*Please consult your physician before fasting from food. If you fast from solid foods, consider fasting for 1 meal a day.
